How the mobile app keeps its Supabase session across launches, and the optional Face ID app lock.

## What it is [#what-it-is]

Once you sign in to the Aden app you stay signed in. You only sign in again
if you sign out, change your password, or delete the app.

If you want a gate on top of that, turn on app lock. Aden then asks for Face
ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode when you come back to it.

## Using it [#using-it]

1. Open Profile, then Account, then Security.
2. Turn on "Require unlock". Your phone asks you to authenticate once to
   confirm it works.
3. Pick when the lock kicks in: immediately, or after 1, 5, or 15 minutes in
   the background.

Turning the lock off does not sign you out.
